Stainless Steel 304 / 304L Buttweld Fittings are essential components in piping systems, offering strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. These fittings are widely used in various industries, including chemical processing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and oil and gas, due to their excellent material properties.
Stainless Steel 304 is a versatile and widely used austenitic stainless steel alloy known for its exceptional corrosion resistance. It contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel, which provide its corrosion-resistant properties. Stainless Steel 304L is a low-carbon variation of 304, making it suitable for applications where welding is required without the risk of carbide precipitation. This combination of materials ensures that these buttweld fittings can withstand aggressive environments and harsh conditions.
